What’s orange and black and scary to our bottom line?

New York businesses were stockpiling USPS orange and black pallets. Two postal sleuths helped recover 1,520 USPS pallets worth $30,000.Halloween is just around the corner. Maybe that’s why some New York businesses were stockpiling the orange and black USPS pallets — for decorative purposes.

Whatever the rea­son, New Jersey Logis­tics and Distribution Center employees Joe Scicchigno and Lance Wiedman reported the businesses to Headquarters Mail Transport Equipment (MTE). Postal Inspectors were contacted to investigate and retrieve the equipment located at businesses in Brooklyn and Jamaica, NY. The two postal sleuths helped recover 1,520 USPS pallets worth $30,000.

If you see postal equipment such as pallets, flat tubs, trays or hampers that are obviously outside the postal net­work, send an e-mail to hqmte@usps.gov with the location, type and quantities of equipment to be retrieved and placed back into postal inventory.
